Weekend Discussion Thread: Monster vs. Monster

Alert reader Dave writes:

I was thinking about how Gamera is friend to all Japanese children while Goosio is friend to all Maltese children and what would happen in a Gamera vs. Goosio showdown. That of course led to the idea of which monsters from various MST3K’d movies should do battle in either one-on-one or tag team matches.

I for one would like to see a giant leach take on a slime person.

What bout would you like to see?

    I don’t think the Gamera/Goosio mashup would be much of a contest since Mike Nelson was able to single handedly kill Goosio.

    I’d like to see Mikey from Teenage Strangler and that kid Troy from Final Sacrifice. They wouldn’t have to fight to the death, maybe a tug of war or a cry-off would suffice.

    The “zombies” from TISCWSLABMZ vs. the parts monster (for lack of a better name) from The Brain That Couldn’t Die. There are several zombies, but the parts monster seems to be quite strong, so I think the parts monster would win. Plus, he seems to have a good heart, what with how he saved that woman, and I want good to win.

    I love #5.

    I’d like to see the sausage-mouthed monsters from Horror at Party Beach go up against a box of saltines.

    Am I playing this right? Anyway…

    Deathstalker Vs. Cabot. It’s a smug-off!
    Super Dragon Vs. Bart Fargo. It’s a smug-off!

    Back to monster v. monster, I’d like to see The Beast of Yucca Flats in a “foot” race against The Creeping Terror. I’ll check back in a couple of hours to see how they’re doing.

    The most obvious is Torgo vs Ortega. I think a Satoris (Final sacrifice) vs The Master (Manos) would be pretty awesome as well. Dr Z (creature form) vs The Horror(s) at Party Beach could be a fun bout as well. Let the games begin!

    Re:#43

    I put my money on the Chicken Men of Krankor. They may be ineffectual weenies, but at they aren’t half as spastic. And they know where their record is. And they didn’t steal no bike neither.

    Speaking of which… Mikey from Teenage Strangler vs. Troy from Final Sacrifice would be the ultimate wuss-off. Maybe Rowsdower and Mikey’s older brother could tag team.

    Babs vs. Gloria. Interesting. Of course
    overly tight dresses confine Gloria in the match,
    although she’s sure to fight dirtier.

    But when Gloria finds out who she has to wrestle with
    she might well respond:
    “Dirk?! No, that can’t be Dirk! Uh uh! No, that’s NOT Dirk…no!”

    No, as the oldest and wisest person here I claim the right to declare the winner. Many tried very hard, but two of you nailed it: Mikey and Troy (51 and 86).

    That’s it, everybody go home.

    I’m still recovering from visualizing THAT one. Trying to picture Krankor and Ortega having a nose-off isn’t even close.

    yee-ouch. Some good ideas here, most of which would end up with a far better movie than the originals. And heaping mounds of buttery shame on those who went off-topic with the heroes and villains. These are supposed to be monsters, people. Although in some cases like Gloria from Sinister Urge, or Troy from Final Sacrifice, it’s hard to tell what category you’re in.

    My offering: how about Beau Bridges from Village of the Giants vs Glen Manning with his face missing from War of the Colossal Beast. Wouldn’t want to be underfoot when Beau wets himself.
